Management Comments

"Our fourth quarter net revenues were $2.07 billion, net earnings attributable to common shareholders were $191 million and diluted earnings per common share from continuing operations were $0.87. Adjusting our results for a markdown and resulting pre-tax loss of $30 million associated with our investment in Point Bonita—a fund we advise and in which we hold an equity interest—our net earnings attributable to common shareholders was $213 million, or $0.96 per diluted share. Our quarterly results reflect strong performance and sustained momentum in both Investment Banking and Equities, with net revenues increasing 20% and 18%, respectively, partially offset by lower net revenues in Fixed Income and Asset Management. Adjusting for the impact of Point Bonita, our businesses delivered an adjusted return on adjusted tangible shareholders' equity of 12.9%.

“Investment Banking net revenues were $1.19 billion, up 20% from the prior year quarter, driven by market share gains and a stronger overall market for our services. Our Advisory net revenues were our second-best quarter on record, reflecting strong corporate and sponsor activity. Approximately 44% of annual Equity Underwriting net revenues were generated in the fourth quarter, positioning us well for 2026 as sponsor activity accelerates.

"Capital Markets net revenues were $692 million, up 6% from the prior year quarter. Equities net revenues grew 18%, driven by higher global volumes, market share gains, and continued strength in prime services, corporate derivatives and electronic trading—key areas of our growth strategy. Fixed Income net revenues declined 14% due to persistent credit market headwinds resulting in lower overall activity compared to the prior year quarter.

"Asset management fees and investment return revenues of $81 million was lower from the prior year quarter. While fee income was stable, an increase in investment return performance from certain strategies was offset by underperformance in other strategies including a pre-tax loss of $30 million related to our investment in Point Bonita.

"We are intensely focused on executing on our opportunity and realizing the attractive and consistent results that we believe Jefferies can produce. We believe we can continue to gain market position in what we anticipate will be an increasingly favorable environment. Ongoing technology investments are yielding innovation, enhanced productivity and better client solutions. Further, we continue to drive opportunities and initiatives we have underway across our firm to support additional long-term growth. Consistent market share gains, margin improvement and the benefits of scale and brand, and perhaps a more “normal” operating environment, all bode extremely well for Jefferies."

Notes

1.Return on adjusted tangible shareholders' equity, Return on adjusted tangible shareholders' equity from continuing operations and Adjusted return on adjusted tangible shareholders' equity from continuing operations represent non-GAAP financial measures and are based on full year or annualized amounts. Refer to schedule on page 9 for a reconciliation to U.S. GAAP amounts.

2.Shares outstanding on a fully diluted basis (a non-GAAP financial measure) is defined as common shares outstanding plus preferred shares, restricted stock units, stock options and other shares. Refer to schedule on page 10 for a reconciliation to U.S. GAAP amounts.

3.Adjusted tangible book value per fully diluted share (a non-GAAP financial measure) is defined as adjusted tangible book value (a non-GAAP financial measure) divided by shares outstanding on a fully diluted basis (a non-GAAP financial measure). Refer to schedule on page 10 for a reconciliation to U.S. GAAP amounts.

4.Allocated net interest represents an allocation to Asset Management of certain of our long-term debt interest expense, net of interest income on our Cash and cash equivalents and other sources of liquidity. Allocated net interest has been disaggregated to increase transparency and to present direct Asset Management revenues. We believe that aggregating Allocated net interest would obscure the revenue results by including an amount that is unique to our credit spreads, debt maturity profile, capital structure, liquidity risks and allocation methods.

5.Allocated net interest is not separately disaggregated for Investment Banking and Capital Markets. This presentation is aligned to our Investment Banking and Capital Markets internal performance measurement.

6.Asset management fees and revenues include management and performance fees from funds and accounts managed by us, revenue from strategic affiliated asset managers where we are entitled to portions their operating revenues and income based on our ownership interests in the affiliates.

7.Number of trading loss days is calculated based on trading activities in our Investment Banking and Capital Markets and Asset Management business segments, excluding certain Other investments.

8.VaR estimates the potential loss in value of trading positions due to adverse market movements over a one-day time horizon with a 95% confidence level. For a further discussion of the calculation of VaR, see "Value-at-Risk" in Part II, Item 7A "Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2024.

9.Level 3 financial instruments represent those financial instruments classified as such under Accounting Standards Codification 820, accounted for at fair value and included within Financial instruments owned.

10.Tangible shareholders' equity (a non-GAAP financial measure) is defined as shareholders' equity less Intangible assets and goodwill. We believe that tangible shareholders' equity is meaningful for valuation purposes, as financial companies are often measured as a multiple of tangible shareholders' equity, making these ratios meaningful for investors.

11.Leverage ratio equals total assets divided by total equity.

12.Tangible gross leverage ratio (a non-GAAP financial measure) equals total assets less goodwill and intangible assets divided by tangible shareholders' equity. The tangible gross leverage ratio is used by rating agencies in assessing our leverage ratio.

13.Beginning in the fourth quarter of 2024, revenues from corporate equity derivative transactions historically included within Other investment banking net revenues were reclassified to Equities net revenues as the underlying business has matured and has started to generate meaningful revenues. Prior year amounts have been revised to conform to this reclassification change to the current year reporting.

14.Compensation ratio equals total compensation expense divided by total net revenues. Non-compensation ratio equals total non-compensation expense divided by total net revenues.

15.Adjusted net earnings attributable to common shareholders (a non-GAAP financial measure) excludes the $30.0 million expense ($22.6 million, net of tax) related to a loss associated with our investment in Point Bonita in the current quarter. Refer to schedule on page 9 for a reconciliation to U.S. GAAP amounts.
